First-year

Criteria for admission include a state-certified high school transcript or the completion of the GED, corresponding standardized test scores, and appropriate personal qualifications. Recommendations from high school guidance personnel, teachers and pastors may be examined concerning character traits and personal qualifications. We welcome applications from home school applicants.

Transfer

Transfer students who have earned an associate of arts or associate of science degree will be admitted with up to 64 credit hours transferring and with all general education requirements waived. A general education waiver is not accepted for students pursuing teacher licensure.

If you have not completed your associates degree, we will evaluate your courses on a course-by-course basis.
